Tusome Pamoja is a 501-c(3) non-profit organization that aims to provide refugee immigrant children who have experienced interrupted or incomplete formal education (SLIFE) with numeracy and literacy skills. Although these students participate in English language and math learning programs at their respective schools, they often receive inadequate resources from their educational programs to address and support the significant gaps in their education. As a result, SLIFE students struggle to understand both the language and subject matter of their courses- they’re left without the foundational concepts necessary for passing their grade-level instruction. However, our mission at Tusome Pamoja is to cultivate a sense of academic confidence and self-sufficiency within these children that allows them to grow academically alongside their peers. The program supports students’ academic success with one-on-one and small group lessons in fundamental math concepts, English writing, and English reading.
